NEW GROOVES: All B.O.B. Sees Is “Strange Clouds”

With his long range of music capabilities, we never know what to expect next from B.O.B. At one moment he may provide an inspirational anthem such as “Airplanes” or a pop classic such as “Nothing on You” and then turn around with a Hip-Hop hit like “Bet I” while continuing to capture our interest in his talent and personality. Unlike his last album opener, B.O.B has returned with the highly energized Hip-Hop party song “Strange Clouds” with the help of Lil Wayne released on September 27th. I wouldn’t be surprised if this became another club anthem. With the anticipation of his sophomore release, I am quite certain this will keep the listeners anxious to hear what he has in store for the sound waves next.  “Strange Clouds” ft. Lil Wayne is now available on Itunes at id467890644.webloc.

NEWS WORTHY: Lil’ Wayne Does It Again

It’s always uplifting to be a witness to continued success and to see one of our fellow young professionals excelling in their craft. We’ve been afforded a second opportunity to observe as Lil Wayne beats the odds of a declining economy and industry by selling a million albums in the first week with his recent release “Tha Carter IV” As I read reviews and comments regarding this new milestone, many raised the question, “why?”.  While this question continues to be raised, I would like to open up the floor for discussion.

  • Do you agree that this accomplishment was deserved?
  • How do you feel about the direction music is taking?
  • Last but not least, if you don’t like the direction, what are you, as the consumer, going to do to change it?

Selling a million records in the first week with two albums consecutively only leaves me with one thing to say. Congratulations! He must be doing something right.
